Description......: Humans have mapped every corner of the globe--from jungles and deserts to the depths of space. Yet
		   we've gone only seven miles below the Earth's surface--just one five hundredth of the way to the
		   Core. This documentary special goes deeper: 4,000 miles down to the heart of our planet. Along the
		   way, scientists, engineers, explorers and adventurers encounter an underground world where: strange
		   life forms inhabit deadly environments over a mile down; trees force their way through 400 feet of
	   	   rock to find water; 1500-foot tall skyscrapers are built on sand; mines are the size of cities;
		   and prospectors give the Earth electric shocks to help find oil. It also a place where people run
		   marathons, make parachute jumps and scuba divers edge their way to the base of the world's deepest
	 	   caves. Finally, find out how our very existence depends on the mysterious underground forces that
	 	   shape the Earth.
